The Natural Philosopher gurgled happily, sounding much like they
were saying:

No worse than a medium factory.

I'm surprised a medium factory would take that much power, but the
most difficult part inside the car park is wiring up every bay to the
feed.

...not to mention what happens when some numpty cocks up parking and
takes the pole out of the ground.

Then, of course, there's the scrote factor - how many of these street
poles will be being tapped for domestic electrickery?

Well if the only work when you stick a credit card in them, not many.

The socket out will only work with a card. But the power going in to the
pole is almost certainly going to be accessible through a nice little
access hatch or similar.

OK, so the next problem is somebody unplugging your car and plugging
theirs in to your pole.


Plus the card will charge you at a rate just cheaper than the equivalent
petrol (as we live in a mixed capitalist economy) so the pole providers can
make healthy profits for their shareholders.
